If you have iPhone, and shop…read this!

When I got the email telling me about this app and how I should check it out I pretty much rolled my eyes and went on doing what I was doing. As a blogger I get things thrown in my direction a lot, and I’ve learned not to get too excited. This one though is one to get excited about, really excited about!

I myself am so excited that if you could see my face right now, it might be bordering on insane. I’ve always joked with close friends that I wish I could be pocket sized and go with them every time they want to pick up a new outfit, but sadly I can not and must wait till I see them in a “don’t” and try to find a kind way of breaking the news. I’m hopeful that this app will be the end of many uncomfortable conversations.

So what does any of that have to do with the iPhone, and apps? Well meet your new “pocket sized” best friend. Yup that’s right, your own professional stylist living in your iPhone. Ok so maybe they’re not “living” in your phone, but close enough A team of eight stylists trained and certified by Glamour magazine are on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Did you get that? TWENTY-FOUR-SEVEN fashion advice! Oh yeah here is the important part–FOR FREE!

The app is a real-time conversation, and what you ask can affect the answer you get. For example if you want to buy a purple studded top, and don’t know what color bottoms to wear with it, tell the stylist your options. If white pants are a no-no, make a note of that so they don’t suggest it. The stylist that reply are paid, but aren’t on commission so you won’t be getting links on what to wear. They’ll just make styling suggestions. Here is a test run of what I sent!

I hope you love it as much as I do! The app is called “Ask a Stylist” by Glamour.
